Extracts timed subtitles from local video/audio files using Whisper. Outputs SRT format with accurate timestamps. Handles complex filenames automatically. Use when user asks to "extract subtitles", "get subtitles", "transcribe video", "识别字幕", "提取字幕", or "获取字幕".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Video Subtitle Extractor

Extract timed subtitles (SRT) from local video/audio files using OpenAI Whisper.

> **Scripts**: All scripts are in `scripts/` relative to this SKILL.md.

## Workflow

```
- [ ] Step 1: Environment check (Whisper + FFmpeg)
- [ ] Step 2: Input validation (file exists, has audio stream)
- [ ] Step 3: Detect language (auto or user-specified)
- [ ] Step 4: Run extraction script
- [ ] Step 5: Verify output and report
```

---

### Step 1: Environment Check

```bash
which whisper
which ffprobe
```

| Result | Action |
|--------|--------|
| whisper found | Continue |
| whisper missing | `brew install openai-whisper` (macOS) or `pip install openai-whisper` |
| ffprobe missing | `brew install ffmpeg` |

---

### Step 2: Input Validation

1. Confirm video/audio file exists
2. Get duration and confirm audio stream present — handled by script automatically

---

### Step 3: Language Detection

- If user specifies language → use it
- If unclear → ask user, suggest `en` or `zh` as common options
- Whisper `--language` flag values: `en`, `zh`, `ja`, `ko`, `fr`, `de`, `es`, etc.

---

### Step 4: Run Extraction

```bash

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add daftai2026/daftai-skills/daftai-extracting-video-subtitles@sha256:d5dce3c4dfa08cf7

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260327.38c81a4, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
